# Links to your own articles.

At the outline, Rext AI suggests your published articles on the topic. Each one you keep is linked from the new one.

## How it works

1. 01

### Publish

Internal links come from the articles Rext AI has published from this workspace, at their live address on your site.

2. 02

### Content Outline

The Internal Links panel lists the ones that match the new article, closest first, each with its title, address and relevance.

3. 03

### Your choice

Links at 50% relevance or more start selected. Tick or untick any of them before you click Approve and generate.

4. 04

### Article

Every link you kept is written into the article's text with its own anchor words, not added as a list at the end.

## What it doesn't do

- It suggests only articles Rext AI has published from this workspace, not the other pages of your site.
- With nothing published yet, the outline shows no internal links.
- It adds links to the new article only; your older posts stay as they are.

## Questions about internal links

### Which articles can it link to?

The articles Rext AI has published from the same workspace, at the address they went live at. A draft, a post only saved in WordPress, or a page Rext AI did not publish is not suggested. So the panel fills up as you publish: your first article has no internal links, and each one after it has more to choose from.

### How is the relevance worked out?

By comparing the new article's focus keyphrase with the text of each published article. Each one gets a score from 0 to 100%, the panel lists them from the closest down, and the ones at 50% or more are selected for you. The score only orders the suggestions: which links go in is your choice.

---

### Does it change my older posts?

No. The links go into the new article, from its text to your older articles; the older articles are not edited. Each kept link sits in a sentence with its own anchor words, and the article is checked for them before it is finished, so none is dropped or tacked on at the end.
